paratiycy ended, and by noon the Confedei-
ates were in full retreat, with Lovelrs divi-
sion acting as a rear guard, Eosecrans
decided, however, not to begin pur,ui, until
the next day. For this delay he was greatly
blamed 10y Gen. Grant, but the former jus
lifted it on the ground that his men were
worn out by two days Of fighting and two
>leepess nights Of preparation, movement
and march When begun, the pursuit proved
to be unavailng, and, with the exception o.
one or two Slight affairs, the ConfederateS
continued their march uninterrupted to Rip

to march across a rugged raviHe, Il, Dugh

What is known in history as 'the western
campaign Of 1SG?-G3n had for its object the
conquest of the valley of the Mississippi and
the occupation of the line of river and rail-
way communications, whereby the eastern
portion of the Confederacy was so amply sup
piled from the fertile resources Of Louisiana,
Arkansas and Texas. At the very beginning
of the war the paramount importance of the
Mississippi river was recognized by the mill
tary and political leaders on both sides. 1t
irrigated an area of thirteen hundred thou
sand square miles, or six times rs large as the
empire of France, received the waters of fifty
seven naviSable streams and washed the
shores of ten different states Its possession
by the south made the Confederacy compact.
It's loss would close tho only avenue of con-
slant communication with the outside
world, and shut off the vast beef growing
territory from which the southern armies
derived their cattle Hence the seizure by
the Confederates at an early day of such inn
portant positions along the river as Coium-
bus, Island No 10, Fort Pillow. Nrkshurg
and Port Hudson.
In preceding articles it has been showl how,
with the fall Of Columui Forts Henry and
DonelSon and the evacuation Of Nashville.
the first line Of Confederate defenses was
shattered and the enemy were forced to form
a second line with their left resting ON the
b1iSsisSipp at Fort Pillow, the center at
Corinth and the right at Chattanooga. In
retiring from Columbus, Gen. Polk; who was
in command Of the Conicderates, sent the
principal portion of his army to re-enforce
Gen. Albert Sidney Johnston, who was then
falling back from Nashville, and removed his
stores and guns, 40 in number, fort y-fvc
miles down the river to Island No ~.

Tlc IIorSc'S Tail.

characterization rules so generally in
these days, that to overlook any point
through which this may be reached in the
horse is to lessen the prospect of attract

pective price. In the mere matter of speed,
a horse with rat tail will 60 as fast as
though he carried handsome flowing one
All the same, the latter is very desirable
appendage.
A low-carried tail and a slim tail detract
wonderfully from the looks of a horse
otherwise of good proportions, stately and
a good stopper, while IL flowing tail, Of good
length, we'll carried, makes an otherwise
PLAN horse attractive, and there are cir
cumstanccs where it will add materially to
his selling qualities. An expert filter will
greatly improve the mode of carrying the
tail by using appliances for elevatingi it at
the root, and especially may it be improved
when carried partially to one side by sever
ing the tcndons on the lower side of the
tail, on the side toward which the tail in
clines, putting the tail i'll pulleys, drawing
it gently over to the other side, until the
space between the cut ends of the tcndOnS
fills up with new deposit. There is little
danger of getting the tail too far over, as
the tendency of the healing process is
toward contraction, and this requires to
be guarded against until the new material
to fill the space is tirm.-Natlonal Live
